Welcome to the official GReddy USA blog. -Think of this as our online weekly "GReddy Times," a venue for us to report what's going on or what just happened at GReddy USA this week (new products, new projects, racing news, even online store specials.) On our blog you can see what we are up to in the GReddy Sales floor, R&D garage, on the road or even from our Headquarters in Japan.

GReddy Air Intake Systems are designed to be the perfect match to free-flowing GReddy Exhaust systems, like the SP Elite, RS-Racing Sport and Evo3. Like our exhausts we carefully study each specific application to develop the ideal system; complete, easy to install, with quality construction and great fitment. GReddy Air Intake systems improve horsepower through a cool air-charge and smoothly increasing intake air-flow. Our new 4-layer synthetic, deep pleated, dry filter element provides improved filtration, with long service intervals. It also provides high flow, but without sensor contamination. Manufactured and designed in association with aFe Power, for USA spec vehicles.

With back to back Long Beach events starting off the 2012 and 2013 seasons in 8th place, the team had high hopes to better the results and shoot for the team's first podium finish.

In early practice, GReddy driver, Ken Gushi was impressing everyone, with his high speed, smooth transitions, aggressive angle, wide lines and big smoke... As shown in this instagram video posted by Formula Drift announcer, Jarod Deandafrom the Judge's stands

The powerful new engine, chassis and driver performed faultlessly. Unfortunately being the debut event with this new car, there is still a learning curve to dialing in the car under full range of track conditions and changeable variables. This lead to a less then ideal Qualifying(77pts.,19th) and Top32 tandem battle(vs. Odi Bakchis).

Rest assured the GReddy Team is already planning for more extensive testing to fully prepared for Rd.2 in Road Atlanta, May 9-10. Thank you for your support!
